Hi Jonathan, Hi Emily Emily, you want to contribute to wireshark? That is awesome. I think I speak for everyone to send a HUGE welcome your way and hope your experience working on and with wireshark be excellent! I think a git dissector would be really awesome. We do have a packet-git.c already in wireshark, but looking at it it is very barebones (understatement of the year:-) but getting a real full blown git protocol implementation would be totally awesome. I am more than happy to provide feedback and advice for Emily. We do have pretty good development documentation so it should be pretty easy to get started and get a development environment up and running. ( Jonathan, remember that smb2 client I was working on, libamb2? I got it to run on PlayStation2 now. It is totally awesome being able to use SMB3.1.1 and full encryption to copy file between the PS2 memory card and Azure cloud file server :-) ) best regards Ronnie Sahlberg On Sat, Sep 19, 2020 at 8:21 AM Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder () gmail com> wrote:
Hi wiresharkers, Outreachy <https://www.outreachy.org/> is a program similar to the Google Summer of Code, providing internships to work on open source projects. Emily (cc-ed) and I would be interested in mentoring an outreachy intern on adding support for the Git protocol to wireshark. We think this would be helpful for documenting the spec better, for making debugging easier for future Git developers, and for helping people working on systems involving Git (e.g. CI systems) to understand the behavior of the systems they oversee. We think that a co-mentor within wireshark would be helpful for making sure an intern is set up for success (helping them find pointers, making sure their approach is on the right track, etc). This would be a project under the Git umbrella <https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/git/>. What do you think? Does this sound interesting to you? Thanks, Jonathan
